What do you want to change?
I am interested in changing the social contract and redefining who does what in support of the greater good.
What is your role at Manifest?
Founder. As such I have two essential roles: To be the eminence gris here, offering the benefit of forty years’ experience on social change to Manifesters working at the rock face of current societal issues and challenges our clients are addressing. To apply all I know in working in partnership with Greta Palmason to consult directly with a select number of clients on how to harness the power of ideas to advocate for policy change essential to institutionalizing greater good.

ST. JOSEPH'S HEALTH
CENTRE FOUNDATION
Promise
WHAT WAS THE ISSUE?
While Toronto's west-end community is vibrant and fiercely proud of all it has to offer those that live there, they don't see St. Joe's as a key player in creating the healthy and vibrant west-end.

WHAT DID WE DO?
As part of the Foundation's $80 million fundraising campaign, we created "Promise" - St. Joe's commitment to helping
meet the unique healthcare needs of Toronto's west end. This
ranged from higher rates of people living with mental health
challenges, to more births than any other part of the city, to
more seniors living in the community.
WHAT DID WE CHANGE?
By giving voice to the personal stories of west-end neighbours playing their part in helping St. Joe's keep its 'Promise' to the community, the campaign helped raise the profile of St. Joe's and surpassed the $80 million fundraising goal ahead of schedule.
